They are not the same:
sage: log_b(10,2)
3.32192809489
sage: log(10,2)
log(10)/log(2)
but log(10,2).n() is.

We have to distinguish between solutions of polynomials and roots.
Roots are clearly defined mono-valued functions:
z.nth_root(n)=e^(log(z)/n)
however this function is not continuous in z, as log is not continuous

There was a thread on this issue a few months ago, just on the
simplication of algebraic expressions, and I don't want to repeat all
that. Briefly, people tend to think this is easy when they look at
examples which only involve square roots of positive reals, since
there is an "obvious" conventio
That is *very* impressive!

John,
unfortunately, my time constraints do not allow for attending the
Bristol workshop.
And what I meant to say was "extending" the SAGE modular symbols
module in the breadth and number of algorithms, but I have nothing in
the direction of "extended modular symbols" (as in Williams thesis).

Hello folks,
I just tested clisp 2.45 on Solaris 10 on x86-64 [*not* a Sparc] and
with "-O0 -g" and gcc 4.3. make as well as make check passes. So it
looks like we will finally be close to having a working clisp out of
the box at least on x86[-64] based Solaris and can get the port
